With DC shooter now identified as an Afghan national not the antifa secret agent White House hoped for a good time to remember the Trump admin has gutted domestic anti-terrorism capacity and reassigned many to finding grandmothers to arrest at immigration hearings.

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: MAGA is stunned into silence as news confirms National Guard shooter, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, entered the U.S. in 2021 and was vetted and granted LEGAL ASYLUM by the TRUMP ADMINISTRATION in April 2025.

Their entire narrative just collapsed.

The agents around him knew the shooter was caught, and they just let him run his mouth.

Called it: Trump is going to *give* China Taiwan (no, Taiwan is not his to give) in an attempt to reverse the damage of his stupid trade war.
“.. Japanese officials said the message was worrying: the president didn’t want friction over Taiwan to endanger a detente reached last month with Xi, which includes a promise to buy more agricultural products from American farmers ..”

NEW: The governor of West Virginia says that two members of the state National Guard shot today in DC have died.

Those National Guard members should NEVER have been in D.C. in the first place.
precisely my thought. the president and his dumbass republican allies put these men and women into harm’s way for a political stunt and look what has happened
Whether this was random street crime or targeted political violence, I think it was bad for the president to unnecessarily put the National Guard in harm’s way like this. They simply don’t need to be there.

He would not be in prison right this second bc he'd be out on appeal.

There was NEVER going to be a way to DQ him by prison, even if he were charged the first day and that was not thrown out for lack of evidence.
Trump would be in prison right now if John Roberts didn’t save him from accountability

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.

Bounty hunting (nonviolent) immigrants. Cruelty is big business — spending our money to harm our own economy.

ATTENTION! All of USA's government is under a gag order. No one with gov is allowed to commemorate and or promoting World AIDS Day, Dec 1.

THE day aims to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS, support those living with it, remember those lost, & promote prevention & education.
What will you do?
1/ ⚠️ Breaking: At CDC, we've been told the US Government will not officially commemorate World AIDS Day this year. No explanation given.
